📰 Auto News Ford Bronco Raptor Revealed | At least 400hp, 3.0 Ecoboost powered

[Yaj Yak]

bronco raptor is bigger outside and inside, right?

i bet the Braptor rides better as well... and i doubt the 392 jeep could be driven offroad like a side by side, like the braptor can (high speed bumpity humpity mayhem)



i think the Braptor has a lot more "wow" factor as well. it's fucking maasssive in person.

She is a beast next to a badlands or whatever package this one was.

Looks goofy

it's amazing to me in 2022 we are getting a factory vehicle with factory 37's.

 

[SirMarco]

I need this truck

 

[Dan00Hawk]

I saw one out west on 90 on Friday. It had an intimidating road presence with that stance.

Right?! To think 37’s are the new 33’s.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

Not at all surprsied look at how tall a basic bitch 1/2 ton truck is compared to a 90s one.

 

[Pro Stock John]

I saw a Braptor over the summer, looked great. Factory 37s ftw.

But your ZR2 can keep up with it ?

I just wrapped a few days driving the Raptor. Probably the beefiest sounding factory EB engine. Most Fords have an apparent artificial augmentation but that wasn’t the case in the Bronco - not that there isn’t electronic assist, but I couldn’t single it out.

For its massive tires and wild suspension, it drove highly refined around town. Quiet, sophisticated, smooth. Almost too refined - it didn’t drive very differently than a Sasquatch; perhaps a good thing in some circles considering its additional capabilities.

But at $75k, I’d find it hard to not pick the Wrangler 392 for its ridiculous and hilarious excessiveness. Sure, side curtain airbags are nice to have in the Bronco, but it’s probably not at the top of people’s lists who are buying these. Maybe the lower trims.

Granted, I’m comparing street to street impressions - I have no experience with respective off-road capabilities.

I’d take the bronco. The fact Jeeps still do terrible in crash ratings is a problem.

I paid under $30K, I'm okay with what I have.

I remain dumbfounded that Wranglers are regularly just outside the top 10 in annual sales with its repeated poor crash tests.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Can’t believe people let loved ones buy wranglers.


Would take the bronco over a jeep any day for looks alone.

 

[Pro Stock John]

I rented a wrangler few years back for a week and it was the worst handling vehicle I've driven in years.

Maybe they're not as "loved" as you think.

"John buys life insurance policy on Jane, but he kind of wants out of the marriage. Jane wants a Wrangler, so he helps her buy one."
